Absolutely amazing! This the first time I left my dog since rescuing him and his anxiety gave me anxiety 😅. Kristina was great she answered all my questions, she was so kind when I asked stupid ones. She kept my dog safe and happy. She also works with reactive dogs great! Would recommend! Can't say it enough she is amazing!

Our dog Pinta loved staying with Eric and his wife. They were super communicative with us and took her on lots of walks even in the snow and very cold temperatures. It was clear that our pup received a lot of love! We will definitely reach out to them again when we need a sitter.

We can’t express how amazing Ginger is! Our pups are both rescues and have their own little quirks and needs. Our Margo is very anxious and attentive, and both pups aren’t the best walkers. Though, Ginger was so incredibly amazing with making sure they were comfortable and worked with them on their tendencies while taking them on wonderful long walks. She was so communicative, sharing pictures and updates throughout the stay, which meant the world to us so we knew how things were going. We can’t thank Ginger enough for how caring, friendly, and active she was with our pups!

Zyiana was a GREAT caretaker for my beagle. This was my first time leaving spot with a sitter and she made it such an easy and comforting experience. She kept spot for 3 nights and gave consistent updates and photos about my dog, she was very attentive and caring, didn’t even leave out the cuddles/snuggles. She was also very detail oriented and followed instructions given. I highly recommend and would absolutely book again!

Derek was absolutely amazing! He watched our Frenchie for a long weekend. We wish he lived closer because we would hire him all of the time. His communication was the best before during and afterwards. We felt comfortable and knew Homer was getting such great love! I don’t think Homer wanted to leave he had the best time. I wish we could give more than 5 stars!

Very responsive with sharing of puppy photos and videos that was thoughtful and reassuring. The best part was their cavapoo Gau who played so nicely with puppy. We passed by their place a day after finishing our puppy’s first stay with them, and our puppy really wanted to go back there to play with Gau! Will definitely use them again.

About: We have been watching dogs throughout college and grad school at our house by the shore for 7 years. We wanted to continue watching our furry friends in the city! My boyfriend’s family bred Golden Retrievers growing up, and we are both very responsible and communicative with our stays. We have a 4 month old kitten who LOVES animals of all sizes! My boyfriend and I are both teachers! We have the exact same schedule and are home every day at 3pm as well as off weekends and holidays! We take our dogs on walks at the local park! If your dog isn’t good with others, no problem! We have a very quiet street and a lot of places to make sure they get the exercise they need!

About: I'm currently a grad student with a flexible schedule, and honestly, time outdoors with a dog is my favorite way to recharge and get away from the screen. A good walk or an afternoon of play doesn't feel like a chore to me — it's the part of my day I look forward to. That means your dog gets someone with the energy and genuine enthusiasm to keep up with them, not just clock in and out. I grew up with a golden retriever and was the one taking care of him solo whenever my parents traveled for work, so I've been the trusted "person in charge" since I was a kid. I offer dog walking, doggy day care, and drop-in visits & house sitting, and I'm comfortable with everyone from high-energy pups to laid-back loungers. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some company, or a full day of play, I'll treat them like my own. Can't wait to meet you both! As a grad student with a flexible, largely home-based schedule, I can give your pet real attention and keep to their routine. Through the summer I'm generally free all day, every day, except Sunday mornings. Because I'm home and around for most of the day, I can stick to your pet's normal routine — feedings, walks, meds, and play at the times they're used to — and send you updates and photos so you always know how they're doing. If you have a specific schedule you'd like me to follow, just let me know and I'll build my day around it. Doggy day care: I'm in a comfortable 750 sq ft one-bedroom apartment with easy access to Rittenhouse Square, so your dog gets a cozy home base plus plenty of nearby green space for walks, play, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. They'll have my attention, a steady routine, and regular trips outside rather than being left to lounge alone. Dog drop-in visits: I like to be thorough so your dog's day feels exactly like it does when you're home. Before your first visit, I'll ask where to find the spare leash, poop bags, water, and treats, and I'll want to know your usual walking route and routine. The more detail you can share, the better — I'd genuinely rather have too many instructions than too few, so your pup gets the same care and rhythm they're used to. Cat drop-in visits: For cats, I pay close attention to the details that keep them comfortable while you're away. I'll ask where the litter box is, whether it needs refilling, and exactly how you'd like it cleaned, plus where to find food, water, and treats. I also like to know their favorite toy and how they usually like to play or spend their day, so I can match their normal routine rather than disrupt it. Clear instructions are always welcome — I'd rather follow your way of doing things to the letter.

About: I’ve taken care of lots of different kinds of animals since I was a teenager. I worked at a zoo in England for a summer when I was a bit younger and from then, I grew a genuine passion for animals. I am currently working from home, so I will be able to provide lots of attention to your dog. I also walk routinely in the morning, evening, and anytime in between. I do not have any pets that live with me so it will just be myself and your dog. I will usually only have 1 dog at a time unless the dogs already know each other or live together.

About: Hi! I am a dedicated dog lover with three years of experience caring for pups. I’ve spent the last few years pet-sitting for families and watching dogs for my friends, and I’ve learned that every dog is unique—some need a long run, while others just want a quiet spot to nap. I pride myself on being calm and patient. I know meeting someone new can be stressful for a dog, so I always take things at their pace to make sure they feel safe and secure from the moment we meet. My Routine & Activity I am a very active person and love staying moving. If you have a high-energy dog who loves to stay active, I’m the perfect match! I live right near a wonderful park, which is where I spend a lot of my time. My routine includes: Morning and afternoon runs: If your dog is a runner, I’d love to have a partner! Park walks: Plenty of fresh air and mental stimulation at the nearby park. Cuddle time: When we aren't out exploring, I am a big fan of cuddling and making sure your dog feels loved and relaxed. What I Offer Tailored care: I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure their specific needs and schedules are met. A safe environment: I provide a calm, safe space where your dog can feel right at home, whether they prefer lounging on the carpet or snuggling up. Plenty of attention: I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your furry family member the focus and affection they deserve while you’re away. I look forward to meeting your pup and providing a fun, safe, and loving experience for them! I work from home, which grants me significant flexibility throughout the day. This allows me to prioritize your dog’s needs, whether that means a quick potty break, a long walk in the nearby park, or a midday run for high-energy pups. In My Home When a dog stays with me, I focus on creating a seamless transition from their usual routine. Since I work from home, I am able to provide constant supervision and companionship. Your dog will have the freedom to lounge comfortably while I work, with plenty of breaks for play and cuddles. Being located right near a park means we can head out for fresh air and exercise whenever they need a boost of energy. In Your Home For drop-in visits or house sitting, my priority is maintaining the environment where your pet feels most secure. I stick closely to the schedule you’ve built, ensuring feedings, walks, and medications happen exactly on time. I use my work-from-home flexibility to spend quality time in your space, providing not just the essentials, but also the mental stimulation and physical activity—like runs or long walks—that keeps dogs happy while their owners are away. My Approach to Care Safety First: I always keep dogs on a leash during outings and stay alert to their body language. Active Engagement: I love going on runs and walks to ensure high-energy dogs get their heart rate up. Open Communication: I provide regular photo updates and check-ins so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is having a great time.

About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals, starting with my childhood dog, who was a huge part of my life growing up. As a current grad student, I have some extra time and am looking to make some new furry friends! More recently, I’ve helped care for a new puppy, so I’m comfortable with both the patience older dogs need and the energy (and chaos!) that comes with younger ones. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I’m always happy to go on long walks, and as a former college runner, I can easily keep up with higher-energy dogs. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I take that seriously. Everyone that knows me knows how much I love dogs and I am excited to bring that passion to helping your dogs stay happy and safe while you are away. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! I’m currently a graduate student at University of Pennsylvania, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m regularly available on weekends, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and most Wednesdays, with additional availability at other times during the week. For walks, your dog’s safety and comfort will be my top priorities. I will make sure each walk follows your dog’s usual routine, including preferred routes, pace, and any specific instructions you provide. I will stay attentive to my surroundings at all times and will keep dogs securely leashed unless otherwise instructed. I will avoid unsafe situations (like extreme weather, crowded areas, or unfamiliar dogs if needed) and will always prioritize your dog’s well-being. I will happily accommodate any special needs, whether that’s extra patience with a nervous dog, reinforcing training, or adjusting activity levels for puppies or senior dogs. I will also make sure your home is left exactly as I found it. You can expect clear communication and updates after each walk so you know your dog is happy and in good hands.

About: I just adore dogs! I grew up with them; at one point, we had four at once. As an adult, I’ve dog-sit for many people in my life. Some even say they’ve never seen their dog connect with somebody like they have with me! I’d be happy to help out with any size, any breed, any age, and any energy level. Feel free to reach out with any questions, I’d love to get to know your pup! Currently, I’m working part-time and primarily remote. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m able for dog walking and drop-ins most days of the week and most times of the day. Would be happy to chat more about how our schedules can compliment each other’s! I’ll be incredibly respectful of your space, it’ll be as if I was never there. I’ll be sure to keep your space clean, organized, and ensure you come home to a happy pet. I’m glad to accommodate to you and your pet’s needs/desires, whatever those may be.

About: I grew up with many different animals and taking time to learn behaviors and what they like means alot to me. I love dogs personally and getting to spend time with them and learning and caring for them is really important. Im a part time student and I think pet sitting/walking is very convient for me. I have alot of time and willing to spend that time with animals I always made time for my pets and learned around them to make them comfortable with the environment and people, unfortunately I have family that are allergic so I dont have any anymore. In my clients home I prefer for it to be clean and make sure its space for pets to have a good stretch

We use Rover when we travel. Knowing we would be at Disney World I wanted one sitter for 3 times a day for all 6 days. I was able to communicate with Pam before I even left California. Was able to get all the days set up in advance and a commitment to all of the days. The day we arrived at Fort Wilderness Pam came over for a meet and greet. She as just lovely. During the time she sat for us we changed times of walks and needed additional help. She stepped up to all changes in such a helpful way. She was instrumental in our vacation being a success!!

Definitely always a good sign! Our dog looks so happy and comfortable and Chris makes every absolute effort to make sure our dog is happy and comfortable.

Maxime provided a comfortable and fun home for our dog Robert while we were away for a trip; Maxime was attentive with Robert's needs as a reactive and anxious dog and was super communicative with us on how he was doing. He also had such a fun time in her home and got acquainted quickly! I would absolutely recommend Maxime to anyone looking for a dog sitter and will certainly be bringing Robert back in the future!

I’ve never left my 7/mo old german shepherd with anyone but my parents until Emma. GSDs are very unique, requiring a lot of reassurance and attention so I had been reluctant to hand her over to just any sitter. I could not be happier with the care and attention Emma gave to my pup Dela! She went above and beyond, watching her for just a day. Firstly, she was super flexible about a meet-and-greet before hand and clearly absorbed everything I shared about Dela considering how much the 2 of them enjoyed their time together. They went on several walks, played games, and even went to the beer garden that I can only bear with young Dela when I am in a good mood. Dela came back home happy as can be, ready for a good night sleep. I also really appreciated how communicative Emma was the whole day - sending pictures and asking clarifying questions when it came to my own house rules. HIGHLY recommend Emma!!
